Part-Time Health Coach (Work From Home)

As a virtual Vida coach, you will have the opportunity to be selected by clients to work with them on their health goals. You will be responsible for the success of your clients in reaching their health goals. This is your chance to apply your expert knowledge and years of experience in meeting your clients wherever they might be in their own health journey. For the patient recovering from a heart attack who can’t keep up with taking his meds? You’ll be his accountability partner, while helping him understand what each pill does to optimize his heart recovery. For your client who has struggled with a million yo-yo diets? She will be looking to you to alternate between being an expert guide, cheerleader, and enforcer in finding a path towards healthy, sustainable weight loss. The diabetic who can’t seem to stick to a low carb diet despite repeated warnings from his doctor? You should be an active listener and detective in distilling the emotional and social barriers that have gone unaddressed. You will help him learn to cook quick, affordable meals and remind him to grocery shop in a timely fashion!

Specific responsibilities include, but are not limited to the following:

Work closely with the technology team to identify and prioritize new features as requested by clients. Work with our content team to research and develop new educational modules for clients.

Given the sensitive nature of health information, maintain strict confidentiality at all times
